mmthor is an unknown quantity at this point
Default BSPlayer should be installed to "All users" start

Right now, when a user installed BSplayer, the shortcut in Start menu is only accessible by the one who installed it. This is because the directory which contains the shortcut is created inside
C:\Documents and Settings\<user_who_installed>\[localised Start Menu]\[localised Program]\

But in Win2000, WinXP and Windows Server 2003 (and possibly for the upcoming Windows Vista), it is advised to create shortcuts/directories inside the
C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\[localised Start Menu]\[localised Program]\

In this way, anyone who logs into the system could see that such program is installed.

NB: There's an equivalent path in Win NT4 for all users, but since I don't have it right now, I can't confirm where it is.
